Welcome to R2R! You talking about corals or fish?
 
Welcome, fish or coral? Reef or mixed? So many possibilitys. What are I leaning towards?
 
Start with fish! Yellow tangs, Anthias, get some wrasses, also make sure you stock up on hermit crabs and snails. Once the water has cycled then you can think about adding coral. Make sure that you have a good amount of substrate and lots of rock, it will help keep your tank levels more stable and help make it look pretty
 
It's a mix, gonna be a reef tank, I am new to saltwater I still have to buy all the equipment first.i just want to plan ahead
 
My advice to you is to plan slowly and map out your fish, gear, and overall look that your trying to achieve. The worst thing in this hobby is to rush because a lot of money and time can be wasted very easily. Your 110 tall is a nice beginner tank and should last you awhile. My suggestion to you for lighting is to look into a fixture that will give you depth since your tank is taller versus wider. Pumps, Sump, Fish, Rock, and peripherals can be a variety of things.
